If you haven't noticed the men's GQ Awards have been taking place all over the world.
They did here too in Sydney earlier tonight. Some of our favorite actors were there as seen above: the talented Joel Edgerton, the ridiculously handsome Jackson Gallagher, actor Jonathan LaPaglia, host of Australian Survivor and the quite handsome model Jordon Barrett.

Some cute pics from David Beckham's Instagram as he takes the children to see Skippy and Co. But where is Victoria? . The family are renting a luxurious mansion in the harbourside suburb of Mosman but also a suite at the Intercontinental Hotel in Macquarie Street. Did you know Skippy could play the drums?. No either did we.

I may not know about art but I know what I like.
